Scott's performance made little reference to what MS are actively doing to expand platform/device penetration. This great technology may be wasted if developers cannot be confident of platform/device spread.

Isn't that exactly the reason that they stand on stage full height announcing new release, while you're hiding under this nice drawing behind the corner? Schooldays are over dear, this is business.

HTML 5 has some nice features but when you really look at it from a capibilities perspective it is only as functional as Silverlight 1. It gives you vector graphics, some media controls and alllows you to maniplate it via JavaScript.

I've always hated dealing with databinding because it's been like fumbling in the dark. Many times I simply refuse to use binding at all because I don't want to deal with it. Needless to say, debugging is going to be awesome.

And then the 3D demo was truly impressive, especially if it was created in one week. It's going to be a huge leap forward in the visual capabilities of Silverlight.

Thanks again for providing great tools which scale and support a large development community. My rather narrow interest is streaming video and in the media break-out session still did not get what I needed. Most of the tools are targeting the big shops (makes sense from your perspective) but at some point the small guys that used MMS need to be addressed. We were very happy to use 2003 Media Server and everybody had a player on their desktop. The small streaming video houses are not worried about proprietary players - We make money by creating a publishing point, cut and past some html into our clients landing page, start shooting and encoding and away we go. We have been forced to start using Flash based encoders such as uStream Producer, Livestream or multi-camera VidBlaster. I am sure you are headed there at some point but how soon.

Normally I can watch high quality recording with no problems.I am currently downloading the standard quality keynote to see if I can get past 20 minutes.Also, I cannot fast forward on any of the high quality recording in any of the players. Sure wish I could skip past the part I have seen 10 times now.

That IIS media streaming to devices looks really good. I remember working on something similar, it had 2 working names - mono.flv and FLVDelivIIS7. It has been demoed to Microsoft employees in Reading, UK and has been demoed at ReMIX 08 in Brighton. There's a trace here: http://blog.monochrome.co.uk/2008/09/dont-want-to-wait-for-silverlight-3-to-get-your-flv-support/.

We could never figure out how to transcode live video to devices in real time but transcoding prerecorded media was quite simple. Shame we could not get involved in this project but hey, who knows, maybe we have influenced something? Still have the source somewhere, might have a play with my version again

the web is diverse. the web is made of javascript + html and other technologies. the web is not a browser. The web is the ability to communicate . the web is not the w3c. standards are good , but standards are what they are , usefull but not always the best.

in my opinion , HTML5 is a mistake. the W3C should have fixed some issues with their previous standards before thinking about HTML5.

Now there is a huge problem with silverlight in my opinion. There are too much differences between silverlight and WPF.furthermore XAML is too complicated for a client developper , compared to MXML and Flash. But the solution is not to make Silverlight a subset. the solution would have been better if silverlight was a framework on top WPF, so you can limit yourself to silverlight for rapid web dev or go down to a more complicated level if you want to go further.

I love the series but for some reason two of the videos have a problem. While the FireStarter Session1 video was corrected for pixelating, the video is now slightly out of sync with the audio (at least it is now watchable ). Also, the keynote speech has the same pixelating issue that the Session 1 video had (I tried downloading it 3 times thinking it might be a problem with the download process) and I am unable to download the Medium Quality wmv for the keynote speech.

I have a Dell XPS1530 with the Windows 7 64-bit OS. Would it be possible to fix these please?

Regards,

MoVB
